Whatever the course the Police have to take, they will take it. No permission had ever been sought from us, no permission was given, said Rajni Abbi, Delhi University proctor on protest and detentions outside the Faculty of Arts in DU over the screening of a BBC documentary on PM Modi.

I-cards of those who were detained will be checked, it will be determined if they are DU students. If they are from outside Police will take action and if they are from DU, appropriate action will be taken against them, said a Delhi University proctor.

We are standing outside the Arts Faculty gate at Delhi University. The situation is normal. Around 4 pm, 20-25 people came here to screen a banned BBC documentary. They were told to go back as it's banned. When they didn't, they were detained and the situation became normal, said Sagar Singh Kalsi, DCP North.

Some students went inside and perhaps attempted (to screen it) but failed. Later, a few more people gathered and Police handled the law and order situation outside well. Right now, at 6 pm, the situation is normal everywhere. The students who went inside have also left, said the DCP North.
